🐍 In Indonesia, a giant snake has swallowed a woman. The body of the 45-year-old mother of four was found in the stomach of the five-meter-long reticulated python, village chief Suardi Rosi announced on Saturday.
45-year-old Farida did not return home on Thursday evening and has been missing since then. Her husband and other residents of the village of Kalempang in the province of South Sulawesi started a search and discovered the missing woman's personal belongings on Friday.
Shortly afterwards, "they discovered a python with a big belly," reported the village chief. "They agreed to cut open the python's stomach." The missing woman's head was immediately visible. The snake swallowed the woman fully clothed.
Reticulated pythons mainly eat smaller animals and birds, only very rarely they kill people. However, there have been a few deaths in Indonesia in recent years:
▪️Last year, villagers in Southeast Sulawesi killed an eight-meter-long python that had swallowed a farmer.
▪️In 2018, a 54-year-old woman was found dead in the stomach of a seven-meter-long python in Southeast Sulawesi.
▪️In 2017, a man was devoured by a four-meter-long python on a palm oil plantation in West Sulawesi.

Another banzai attack by invaders on a motorcycle at the position of the 79th Air Assault Brigade of the Ukrainian Armed Forces . The attack was stopped by barbed wire and drones waiting at the appropriate location. If you tighten everything with a thorn, then this will simply nullify any banzai attacks not only on motorcycles, but also on buggies.
Another result by 79th!!

🫡 We serve the Ukrainian people!
▫️ President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy signed the Decree on awarding "For Courage" orders to soldiers of the special unit of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine "Artan".
▫️ The awards were presented to the scouts by the head of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, Lieutenant General Kyrylo Budanov.
▫️ Fighters awarded with orders took part in daring and effective missions in the Black Sea and in the territory of the temporarily occupied Crimea!
⚔️ Thanks to operations that at first might have seemed impossible, Ukraine managed to change the balance of forces in the Black Sea and unblock the grain corridor, which now has virtually the same capacity as before the full-scale invasion.
👤 The commander of the special unit of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine "Artan" with the call sign "Titan" became a full knight of the Order "For Courage"!
▫️ According to intelligence officers, this honorary award became an additional motivation to continue working until the complete liberation of Ukraine from the invaders.
🤝 Let's create victory together!
🇺🇦 Glory to Ukraine!
- GUR

Rest in Peace Vladyslav
“Just you and me. Just me...”
In May 2023, Viktoriya and Vladyslav got married and dreamed of celebrating their first wedding anniversary together. But on 29 November 2023, Vladyslav was killed in action in Donetsk Oblast.
In memory of her husband, Viktoriya took a photo on their anniversary. She took her most valuable possessions with her — including her husband's military fatigues and wedding jacket.

Amazon breached UK’s sanctions against russia, claims ex-employee at tribunal
Amazon allegedly sold access to its image recognition service Rekognition to the russian company VisionLabs. Information about this surfaced at the trial of former Amazon Web Services (AWS) employee Charles Forrest, writes the Financial Times.
Briton Forrest claims that the contract for the supply of Rekognition solutions to VisionLabs was signed back in 2020. VisionLabs bought access to the technology “through what appears to be a shell company based in the Netherlands.” The contract went on despite the invasion of Ukraine and sanctions.
In May 2023, he reported Amazon's illegal activities to the UK House of Commons Defense Select Committee and the Serious Fraud Office (SFO).
Amazon denies his claims “based on the available evidence and payment records.”
VisionLabs facial recognition are used in the city video surveillance system “Safe City”, Sberbank, the Moscow metro and the Federal Tax Service.

🇪🇺 According to the preliminary results of the european elections, more far-right and conservative parties are entering the European Parliament.
🇩🇪 In Germany, Chancellor Olaf Scholz's party came in third place after the pro-Russian Alternative for Germany. The opposition Conservative Christian Democratic Union/Christian Social Union is in first place.
🇫🇷 In France, President Macron dissolved the parliament (National Assembly). This was due to the triumphant victory of Marine Le Pen's right-wing radical National Rally party. Macron's party received half as many votes, which led the far-right to demand the dissolution of the National Assembly. The elections are scheduled for June 30 and July 7.
🇦🇹 In Austria, the pro-Russian Freedom Party is the likely winner.
🇸🇰 In Slovakia, the Slovak opposition party Progressive Slovakia took first place in the elections, and the party of Prime Minister Robert Fico came in second.
🇬🇷 In Greece, the New Democracy movement of Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis retained the lead.
🇪🇸 The opposition Popular Party wins in Spain.
🇫🇮 The ruling NRP led by Prime Minister Petteri Orpo wins in Finland. This is a good sign for Ukraine.
🇧🇪 Belgium : The liberal party of the country's prime minister, Alexandre Decro - Open Vld, is defeated. Against this background, he is resigning (the prime minister promised F-16s, so this is potentially a concerning moment for Ukraine).
The pro-Ukrainian European People's Party (EPP) remains the leading faction in the European Parliament with 181 seats, but the influence of right-wing, pro-Russian forces and conservatives has become stronger.
🥇🏃♀️Ukraine's Liudmyla Olianovska surged past her rival two or three meters from the line, leaving a look of horror on García-Caro's face.
The 31-year-old Olianovska, a silver medalist at the European Championships 10 years ago, later dedicated the medal to Ukraine.
“I was tired in the last kilometer and the last meters, but I wanted to win this medal for my country so much,”
she said, per European Athletics.
